Course Outline Information

 

10. Student Performance Outcomes: (Outcomes for all credit courses must indicate that students will learn critical thinking and will be able to apply concepts at college level.  Outcomes must be related to items listed in Section 11.)

1) Using mathematical operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, calculate whole numbers, fractions, decimals, ratios and proportions and percentages problems by showing all steps.
2) Analyze, interpret, and solve whole numbers, fractions, decimals, ratios and proportions and percentages word problems that are either one or multi-step problems by using logical mathematical sequence of steps.
3) Recognize and apply algorithms such as the order of operations and exponential notation to appropriate problems and solve them showing all steps.
4) Recognize and apply mathematical terminology to the interpretations and solutions of all types of mathematical problems by demonstrating the appropriate written steps.
5) Analyze, interpret, and solve basic geometry problems by using the appropriate formulas.

    

11. Course Content Outline: (Provides a comprehensive, sequential outline of the course content, including all major subject matter and the specific body of knowledge covered.)

12. Typical Assignments: (List types of assignments, including library assignments.)

    

a. Reading Assignments: (Submit at least 2 examples)

Students will read the assigned pages from the textbook and be prepared to discuss what a sum, a difference, a product and a quotient are.

Students will read and follow the directions: Choose a variable to represent what is missing in the problem. Write an equation using the variable. Solve the equation.

    

b. Writing, Problem Solving or Performance: (Submit at least 2 examples)

1. A student obtains a no-interest loan of $4600 per year for three years. After that time, the student must pay off the loan in equal payments for a period of 120 months. What is the amount of each of the monthly payments?
2. Find the total cost for a television with a price of $3,999 and a sales tax rate of 6 1/4%. Round the answer to the nearest cent.
